Fastbreak Basketball Academy Teaching Methods

Fastbreak Sports is the premier place for youth basketball in NYC. The Fastbreak Basketball Academy features a dynamic curriculum which includes a games approach to teaching individuals and team concepts. The games approach occurs through small group games where players are both competing as individuals and working together as teams. These are not your typical games but skill specific challenges so the players work on the fundamental of the day in interesting new contest format. These contests challenge and teach our players to THINK. Thus, they learn how and when to use certain skills when they play full court.

SKILL DEVELOPMENT
Skills are acquired through intentional focus and repetition such as shooting, ball handling and offensive moves. Skills are broken down from our coaches by explanation, demonstration, followed by player repetition. Coaches then are constantly searching for error detection and then correct these mistakes so that good habits form. Teaching and practicing of proper techniques first slow to understand the movements then at game speed are some of the keys in developing proper core fundamentals. All skills and drills are adaptable by our staff to a player’s levels so they may receive the maximum benefit. Skill Development
